£9K to upgrade software from V6.3 to V9.x

[stampingstan]

I've just been quoted approx £9K to have the software within my Seimens Realitis DX upgraded from the current 6.3 to the latest 9.x (£7.5K software + £1.5K consultancy).

Whilst there aren't any features in the later versions of the software that I actaully need, I had just naively thought about bringing the software version up to date and maybee enjoying some enhanced features, but at that price it's not very likeley to happen !

It got me thinking.....
"what would a complete new PABX cost me ?"
(I'm thinking £9K would go a fair way ?)

100 analogue extensions
16 digital extensions
18 trunk lines

Just out of interest can anybody offer a ball park figure ?

I'm not looking for a quote - there's nothing wrong with current PABX, software or hardware !



Thanks,
Stan.

The Mitel 3300 is good one.
I think aprox 100 extns with a isdn link to exchange is around 3-4K

Try looking at the Nortel CS1kj (succession ) Rls 5, i was totally surprised at how cheap it was.

Remember if it doesn't work hit it harder
